The Mississippi State Bulldogs will travel to Charleston, SC to play in a tournament this weekend sponsored by Gildan, an underwear company, who has Blake Shelton as its primary spokesperson. That doesn’t really have anything to do with basketball, but at least now you know.
On actual basketball related things, the Bulldogs will get their biggest challenge during the non-conference portion of their schedule this weekend. Winning one game should be expected, two would be nice, and three would be amazing. So who are the Bulldogs going to actually play? Here are the teams entered in the tournament
